disable Internet access

[HRTECH]

I want to disable Internet access on some machines. No matter who logs in. I do not want these computers to access the internet. I am running XP SP1. I have uninstalled IE, and guess what I can still access the internet. Is this possible?

There are several ways:

1. My new favorite: use the IPSEC filter:

2. Using logon scripts, and a false proxy server:

What about setting a DHCP filter on those MAC addresses that prevent assignment of a default gateway?

rgzimmer,
And in Windows XP where do you set the DHCP filter?

Another option, depending on the network....

Uninstall TCP/IP. If you still need network access for printers and such, use a non-routing protocol like NETBEUI.

Just my $.02

You cannot uninstall TCP/IP under Windows XP. It is a core service.
